Suggest Treatment For Tinnitus

I have had a ringing in my ears for about 1 week after attending a club concert. However, I was walking with my ears completely exposed outside to massive wind. Also, I always wear ear plugs at all concerts, so, this is really strange to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Noted your history of attending a concert but always wearing ear plugs at all concerts. You also had exposure to massive wind.
The causes of the tinnitus can be either of these two or due to middle ear infection.
In such a case I would advise you to consult an ENT Surgeon for clinical evaluation, examination and investigations including an Audiometry to see the reasons for the tinnitus and get treated properly.
Tinnitus is still not completely treatable..
In addition you may please go for an MRI of the brain and rears to rule out any tumors near the ear nerves.
